Frontline Fellowship

In this episode of the Get Up and Go Breakfast program on Radio Cape Pulpit, host Anton Brink speaks with Dr. Peter Hammond about the failure of government institutions in South Africa and the rise of private sector initiatives that are filling the gaps.

Dr. Hammond begins by acknowledging that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). He then outlines a grim picture of state failure across multiple sectors:

Education – state schools failing to deliver textbooks; massive growth in private schools and homeschooling.

Security – more people employed in private security than in the army, police, navy, air force, and correctional services combined.

Energy – Eskom has been looted through corruption; private sector has invested massively in solar panels, batteries, inverters, and generators.

Post Office – completely collapsed; replaced by internet and private couriers.

Municipal services – City Improvement Districts (CIDs) and private initiatives now cleaning streets, fixing potholes, and maintaining parks.

He points out that South Africans are paying twice – once through taxes for services the state promises (but rarely delivers), and again through private alternatives. He quotes the African Union's task force on corruption, which estimates that 25% of Africa's GDP is stolen annually through government corruption – in South Africa, that means more than a trillion rand stolen every year.

He calls on citizens to reclaim their municipalities, especially with the upcoming municipal elections on 4 November. He encourages listeners to vote their values, to support biblical candidates who adhere to biblical principles, and to be salt and light in their communities. He concludes: "It's easy to complain, but it's more constructive to light a candle than to curse the darkness."

In today’s show originally recorded and broadcast on August 25 2026, Andy is joined by Dr. Peter Hammond for a show entitled, “The Real Story Of Luke.”

We discussed: how Luke was both a doctor and one of the finest historians of his time; how the book of Luke is the longest book in the New Testament and contains more of Jesus’ teachings than any other Gospel; how the book of Luke contains more of Jesus’ prayers than any other Gospel and instructs us to never give up on prayer; how the book of Luke gives the most detailed account of the life of Jesus Christ; films that are worth watching and sharing with others about the life of Jesus; and many other topics.

In this episode of the Get Up and Go Breakfast program on Radio Cape Pulpit, host Anton Brink speaks with Dr. Peter Hammond about the unfolding Cambridge plagiarism scandal involving Dr. Jason R. Day – who was appointed as the youngest black professor in Oxford's history, only to be exposed for fabricating his credentials, plagiarizing his PhD dissertation, and making outlandish claims (running marathons with a broken leg, having brain tumors, etc.). When journalists and academics questioned him, he pulled the race card and even had the Metropolitan Police intimidate his critics.

Dr. Hammond grounds his critique in biblical principles:

Numbers 15:15-16 – "One law shall be for you and for the stranger... as you are, so shall the stranger be." God calls for equal justice, not racial quotas or double standards.

Leviticus 19:15 – "You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial to the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty."

The Golden Rule (Luke 6:31) – "Do to others as you would have them do to you." Lying, fraud, and plagiarism violate this command.

He argues that Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE), affirmative action, and DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) hires violate God's law and actually destroy the very people they claim to help – creating entitlement, victimhood, and a culture of grievance rather than hard work, integrity, and accountability.

Dr. Hammond condemns suicide as self-murder and notes that Day's tragic death – rather than owning up and repenting – leaves behind a shattered family and unanswered questions. He calls for discernment, truth-telling, and a return to biblical justice, and warns that societies built on racial quotas and lies cannot prosper. He concludes with Deuteronomy 30:15 – life and death are set before us; we must choose life, truth, and righteousness.

In today’s show originally recorded and broadcast on August 18 2026, Andy is joined by Dr. Peter Hammond for a show entitled, “The Real Story Of Mark.”

We discussed: why whilst the gospel of Mark is the shortest it forms Peter’s longest presentation out of all of the gospels; how the book of Mark starts with the public ministry of Jesus, omitting earlier material talked about in the other gospels; why Jesus Christ could only complete his mission by keeping his identity a secret from the masses; the worst crime you can commit in South Africa; and many other topics.

In today’s show originally recorded and broadcast on August 11 2026, Andy is joined by Dr. Peter Hammond for a show entitled, “The Real Story Of Matthew.”

We discussed: how the Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed; Peter’s introduction to the New Testament and the Gospels; the details of Jesus Christ’s life that you can only find in the book of Matthew; the Miracles and Parables of Jesus that can be found in the book of Matthew; why it is not what we say but what we do that counts; what happened at Frontline Fellowship’s “National Women’s Day” outreach in Cape Town yesterday; the 1964 film “Zulu” and its prequel “Zulu Dawn” which was released in 1979; and many other topics.

In this episode of Radio Cape Pulpit's Christelike Perspektief op die Nuus (Christian Perspective on the News), Dr. Peter Hammond addresses a recent News24 "witch hunt" targeting the community organisation AfriForum. He criticises News24 (which he refers to as "fake news 24/7") for attacking a group that has received clean audits for 20 years and is actively involved in community upliftment, safety, and infrastructure projects across South Africa. He highlights AfriForum's contributions, including: supporting 117 neighborhoods and farm watches, operating 24/7 control rooms, deploying 34 drones, training over 10,000 volunteers, installing 135 emergency water points, and pursuing about 80 active court cases against corruption and municipal failure. Hammond argues that the media should be exposing state failure and corruption, not attacking organisations that step in where municipalities have failed. He calls out the financial decline of News24 as evidence of their misplaced priorities and urges listeners to support those working for a safer and better-functioning South Africa.

In this impactful episode of Christian Perspective on the News on Radio Cape Pulpit, the speaker addresses the harrowing reality of human trafficking – or modern-day slavery – which remains a pervasive issue both globally and in South Africa. With over 50 million people enslaved worldwide and the industry generating $150 billion annually, trafficking is not a distant problem; it occurs in Cape Town, Durbanville, and rural areas alike.

The episode shares a personal account of a domestic worker's daughter who was kidnapped in Kraaifontein, bundled into a car, and held captive in a shack near Bellville – a story that sadly reflects countless others. The speaker highlights the involvement of crime syndicates, police corruption, and the vulnerability of young girls (ages 5–15 being the most trafficked demographic) as well as increasingly boys under 18 being exploited for pornography and sexual slavery.

Listeners are urged to be vigilant and to report any suspicions to the Human Trafficking Hotline: 0800 222 777. The episode also promotes an upcoming Women's Day outreach (Monday, 10 August 2026) organised by Frontline Mission SA, aimed at raising awareness and providing information on how communities can combat trafficking.

The message closes with a spiritual call: just as Jesus came to set captives free (John 10:10, Luke 4:18), individuals are encouraged to turn to Christ for freedom from sin and to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.

In today’s show originally recorded and broadcast on August 4 2026, Andy is joined by Dr. Peter Hammond for a show entitled, “The Real Story Of Malachi.”

We discussed: how Malachi is the last of the twelve minor prophets; how the book of Malachi is the last book of the Old Testament, and it was over four hundred years until the book of Matthew, the first book of the New Testament; why the time of Malachi was a time of spiritual decline; how when one generation asks ‘why bother about God’ subsequent generations ask ‘why bother to be good at all’; why God hates heartless treachery and how He has dealt with this; how Frontline Fellowship will be observing Monday’s ‘National Women’s Day’; and many other topics.

What does idolatry look like in today's world? In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Peter Hammond explores the biblical warnings against idolatry and challenges listeners to examine the modern-day idols that can quietly compete for their devotion and allegiance.

Drawing on Scripture and historical examples, the discussion examines how idolatry extends beyond physical statues to include the worship of fame, entertainment, politics, status, sport, wealth, and other distractions that can take the place of God in people's hearts. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their priorities, renew their commitment to Christ, and live lives of faithful obedience and worship.

The episode also highlights the importance of repentance, spiritual renewal, and placing Jesus Christ at the center of every aspect of life. Through biblical teaching and practical application, Dr. Hammond reminds believers of Christ's ultimate victory and the call to worship God in spirit and truth.

This message offers a powerful challenge for Christians seeking to deepen their faith, identify spiritual distractions, and fully surrender their lives to God.
